After restarting the PC/machine, Seirios will automatically start every time the machine powers up.
To start Seirios manually, open a Terminal and enter your workspace by running the command cd ~/catkin_ws/movel_ai
Run docker-compose up to start the docker containers for Seirios (output will be shown in the terminal)
Run docker-compose up -d to start Seirios in the background (no output will be shown in the terminal)
To stop Seirios, go into the terminal where Seirios is currently running, and use Ctrl+C (if you run by using docker-compose up) OR run docker-compose down in another terminal with the same directory. This will lead to the Docker containers being stopped.
To check for docker containers running at any point of time, run docker ps.
If Seirios is up and running, you should expect to see the different containers of Seirios components being displayed. Otherwise, it should yield an empty table.
You can also check the version of Seirios by using docker ps.
The goal of Part 1 of the installation is to install Docker and it’s dependencies
In the same directory in the Terminal, run the command bash install-1-docker.sh
Wait for the installation to complete
Then we move to the last part to install Seirios-RNS.
Installation is easy with simple commands on the command line interface. Before you start, please ensure your system has both Ubuntu and ROS installed. Recommended;
(x86_64) Ubuntu 20.04 & ROS Noetic OR (arm64) Ubuntu 18.04 & ROS Melodic
The easy-deploy package can be obtained from our Movel AI representative or can be downloaded from the following mirrors. Please ensure the right mirror for the right architecture (arm64 or x86 is selected)

A trial license of 15 days is included in this easy-deploy package. Tuning of your robot parameters and configuration is required after installation. Please contact your Movel AI representative or email sales@movel.ai for support and assistance.
Custom features such as docking to charging stations are not included as it is a custom feature that requires development and integration. If you have a docking /custom feature code, please refer to this link for integration
Move the easy-deploy zip file to your home directory /home/<USER> and extract the zip using the Archive Manager (<USER> refers to the account username).
Now, we need to run the installation in a Terminal
Right-click in the file explorer and open a Terminal in the extracted easy-deploy folder/directory
Then we move to the next part to install docker.
arm64 (currently unavailable)
The goal of Part 2 of the installation is to install Seirios, prepare the catkin_ws, and create the appropriate docker-compose.yaml file.
In the same directory in Terminal, run the command bash install-2-seirios.sh
Wait for the installation to complete
Restart the PC/machine after the installation
The script install_2.sh will not overwrite existing files in /home/catkin_ws , and will maintain backups of configuration files for safekeeping
